Significant changes in the state of affairs On 12 November 2018, the Company completed the sale of 100% of the issued capital, including all assets and related management, in Savill Hicks Corp Pty Ltd for consideration of $4.1m. 5. Operating and financial review 5.1. Operating review FY19 was a highly active period which delivered strong growth in Ensurance’s UK business, its investment to build out its operations and product offering, a reduction in overheads and efficiencies gained from the disposal of non-core parts of its business. During the period, Ensurance launched a range of new products in both the UK and Australian markets, significantly broadening its specialist insurance offering into underserved and emerging growth markets. Ensurance UK launched its Cyber Insurance product in November 2018, targeting any business which is responsible for the handling of customer data. Designed to minimise disruption caused to a business caused by cyber-attacks and data breaches, the comprehensive product provides privacy breach response management and information security insurance and is underwritten by Beazley – a leading global speciality insurer. The UK business also launched an Engineering and Inspection Insurance product, strategically partnering with British Engineering Services to provide a tailored solution for sudden and unforeseen damage for the construction and engineering sectors. Significantly expanding the Company’s addressable market, Ensurance UK launched Terrorism and Sabotage insurance for the UK and European market in May 2019. Providing cover for an act of terrorism or sabotage which results in damage to buildings, profits, employees or customers, the product is available to a business of any size and across all industries. Two well-known underwriting specialists were appointed in the UK to support the product’s launch. The product is already being met with strong interest from the market and the Company has also secured capacity for the product’s launch in the US, followed by Australia. The Company launched its Latent Defects Insurance product in Australia in May. This product provides policyholders with cover against property damage caused by structural defects discovered up to 10 years after construction is complete. Targeting the Australian building construction market, estimated to be worth over $100 billion annually, this is the first product of its kind in Australia featuring coverage of this kind and will be sold exclusively through Ensurance’s Australian network of over 330 licensed intermediaries. Lloyd’s, the world’s leading specialist insurance market has provided capacity for the product. In FY19, Ensurance delivered strong growth in gross written premiums and the rate of annual policy renewals, following continued investment in the UK business and the launch of multiple new products during the period. For FY19, gross written premiums were £7m (FY18 £1.9m), with annual policy renewals for the period achieving a 85% retention rate – setting a strong base of recurring revenue for FY20 and providing strong validation of the business’ product offering and customer satisfaction. To support the strategic growth driven by Ensurance’s UK business, the Company appointed Mr Timothy Cramphorn to the Ensurance UK board as Non-Executive Director, effective 1 November 2018. Tim was the former Managing Director of HSB Haughton Engineering Insurance Services Limited and a Director of HSB Engineering Insurance Limited, owned by the multi- billion dollar global reinsurer, Munich Re (ETR:MUV2). With a background in construction and engineering and over 45 years of experience in the industry, Tim’s deep expertise and extensive network of industry contacts has proven to be of great value, adding relevant insight and bringing highly complementary skills to the UK leadership team. The Company completed the sale of Savill Hicks Corp Pty Ltd on 12 November 2018, receiving total consideration of $4.1 million, allowing capital to be redeployed into the appointment of specialist underwriting resources, expanding the Company’s product offering and sales and marketing activity to drive the Company’s global expansion plans. The disposal follows approval of the sale by the Company’s shareholders at the General Meeting held on 12 September 2018. Demonstrating clear support and alignment of the Company’s directors with Ensurance’s strategic growth plans, Executive Chairman and largest shareholder Tony Leibowitz extended a $2.5 million unsecured loan to the Company in June, to support its next phase of growth. Furthermore, existing holders of $2.2 million of convertible notes agreed to extend the maturity date to 30 June 2021, providing further strong endorsement of the Company’s plans from its existing lenders, and their confidence in the long- term value that is being created for shareholders.

Operating results The Group delivered an FY19 loss after tax of $1.402m, representing a decrease of $7.306m on the prior year loss of $8.707m. The decrease in the loss of the group was due to several main factors: Sale of Savill Hicks Corp Pty Ltd resulted in a profit on disposal of $3.648m; Increase in revenue in the United Kingdom of $994k; The prior period contained a one-off impairment charge of $2.007m to impair the Group’s intangible assets Revenue from the Group’s continuing operations increased to $2.477m (2018: $1.208m). Ensurance UK turned over GBP £697k (AUD $1.261m) and has shown strong indications of future growth, operating as an MGA in the UK to provide wholesale insurance for construction and engineering in the UK and EU. Fully authorised by the FCA, Ensurance UK has the ability to sell insurance globally and develop an Appointed Representative Network. The sale of Savill Hicks Corp Pty Ltd was completed on 12 November 2018 for consideration of $4.1m and generated a profit on disposal of $3.65m. The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the continuation of normal business activity and the realisation of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. Details of the Company's assessment in this regard can be found in Note 1a.ii Basis of preparation: Going Concern. b.

Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration The remuneration policy of the Company has been designed to ensure reward for performance is competitive and appropriate to the result delivered. The framework aligns executive reward with the creation of value for shareholders, and conforms to market best practice. The Board ensures that Director and executive reward satisfies the following key criteria for good reward governance practices: Competitiveness and reasonableness; Acceptability to the shareholders; Performance; Transparency; and Capital management. The remuneration policy has been tailored to increase the direct positive relationship between shareholders' investment objectives and Directors' and Executives' performance. Currently, this is facilitated through the issue of options to the majority of Directors and Executives to encourage the alignment of personal and shareholder interests. The Company believes this policy will be effective in increasing shareholder wealth. The Board's policy for determining the nature and amount of remuneration for Board members and Senior Executives of the Company is as follows: a. Executive Directors and other Senior Executives Executives receive a base salary (which is based on factors such as length of service and experience), retirement benefits, options and performance incentives. The Board reviews Executive packages annually by reference to the Company's performance, Executive performance, and comparable information from industry sectors and other listed companies in similar industries. Executives are also entitled to participate in the employee share and option arrangement. b. Non-Executive Directors The Company's Constitution provides that Directors are entitled to be remunerated for their services as follows: (cid:1) The total aggregate fixed sum per annum to be paid to the Directors (excluding salaries of executive Directors) from time to time will not exceed the sum determined by the Shareholders in general meeting and the total aggregate fixed sum will be divided between the Directors as the Directors shall determine and, in default of agreement between them, then in equal shares. (cid:1) The Directors' remuneration accrues from day to day. (cid:1) The total aggregate fixed sum per annum which may be paid to non-executive Directors is $250,000. This amount cannot be increased without the approval of the Company's Shareholders. The Directors are entitled to be paid reasonable travelling, accommodation and other expenses incurred by them respectively in or about the performance of their duties as Directors.

Fixed Remuneration ANNUAL REPORT 30 June 2019 Other than statutory superannuation contributions, no retirement benefits are provided for Executive and Non-Executive Directors of the Company. To align Directors' interests with shareholder interests, the Directors are encouraged to hold shares in the company. d. Performance Based Remuneration – Short-term and long-term incentive structure The Board will review short-term and long-term incentive structures from time to time. Any incentive structure will be aligned with shareholders' interests. (cid:1) Short-term incentives No short-term incentives were granted during the year. (cid:1) Long-term incentives The Board has a policy of granting incentive options to executives with exercise prices above market share price. As such, incentive options granted to executives will generally only be of benefit if the executives perform to the level whereby the value of the Group increases sufficiently to warrant exercising the incentive options granted. The directors of the Company are eligible to participate in the "Ensurance Limited Employee Incentive Option Plan". e. Service Contracts Remuneration and other terms of employment for the directors, KMP and the company secretary are formalised in contracts of employment. f. Engagement of Remuneration Consultants During the financial year, the Company did not engage any remuneration consultants. g. Relationship between Remuneration of KMP and Earnings The Board does not consider earnings in determining the nature and amount of remuneration of KMP. 13.3.

Statement of compliance These financial statements are general purpose financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations of the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AAS Board) and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), and the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth). Australian Accounting Standards (AASBs) set out accounting policies that the AAS Board has concluded would result in a financial report containing relevant and reliable information about transactions, events and conditions to which they apply. Compliance with AASBs ensures that the financial statements and notes also comply with IFRS as issued by the IASB. ii. Going Concern The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the continuity of normal business activity and the realisation of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The Group has incurred a net loss for the year of $1,401,735 (2018: $8,707,405). As at 30 June 2019, the Group had working capital of $2,102,369 (2018: $1,401,835), a net liability of $2,293,658 (2018: $778), and accumulated losses of $20,077,097 (2018: $19,074,092). The Group has had recurring operating losses as a result of the delivery of new products and cashflow generating business units in accordance with the Group’s strategic goals. Based on a cashflow forecast, the Group has sufficient working capital to fund its mandatory obligations for the period ending 12 months from the date of this report. The Group is exploring various capital raising strategies and the Group has also received confirmation of continued and ongoing financial support from one of its major shareholders. This continued financial support will enable the Group to meet its current obligations as and when they fall due. Ultimately the ability of the Group to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the continued unconditional financial support provided by a major shareholder of Ensurance Limited, which was provided in writing on 19 September 2019. On this basis, it is the Directors belief that the Group is able to pay its debts as and when they fall due and will have adequate resources to continue operating for the foreseeable future. For this reason, the Directors consider the going concern basis of preparation to be appropriate. iii. Reverse acquisition Ensurance Ltd is listed on the Australian Securities Exchange. The Company completed the legal acquisition of Ensurance Capital Pty Ltd (Ensurance Capital) on 5 May 2015. Ensurance Capital (the legal subsidiary) was deemed to be the acquirer for accounting purposes as it has obtained control over the operations of the legal acquirer Ensurance (accounting subsidiary). Notwithstanding, as Ensurance Ltd is the listed entity and the ultimate holding company of the Ensurance Group of companies, the financial statements have been referred to as the financial statements of Ensurance Ltd. iv. Use of estimates and judgments The preparation of consolidated financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses. These estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgements about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates. P a g e | 22 ENSURANCE LIMITED AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES ABN 80 148 142 634 Notes to the consolidated financial statements for the Year Ended 30 June 2019 Note 1 Statement of significant accounting policies ANNUAL REPORT 30 June 2019 Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised and in any future periods affected. Judgements made by management in the application of AASBs that have significant effect on the consolidated financial statements and estimates with a significant risk of material adjustment in the next year are discussed in Note 1o. v. Comparative figures Where required by AASBs comparative figures have been adjusted to conform with changes in presentation for the current financial year. Where the Group retrospectively applies an accounting policy, makes a retrospective restatement or reclassifies items in its financial statements, an additional (third) statement of financial position as at the beginning of the preceding period in addition to the minimum comparative financial statements is presented. b. Accounting Policies The Group has consistently applied the following accounting policies to all periods presented in the financial statements. The Group has considered the implications of new and amended Accounting Standards applicable for annual reporting periods beginning after 1 July 2018 and applied them as required, including the adoption of AASB 15, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Other new and amended Accounting Standards have been assessed and it has been determined that their application to the financial statements is either not relevant or not material. c. Principles of consolidation As at reporting date, the assets and liabilities of all controlled entities have been incorporated into the consolidated financial statements as well as their results for the year then ended. Where controlled entities have entered (left) the Consolidated Group during the year, their operating results have been included (excluded) from the date control was obtained (ceased). i. Subsidiaries Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Group. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. The accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to align them with the policies adopted by the Group. Losses applicable to the non-controlling interests in a subsidiary are allocated to the non-controlling interests even if doing so causes the non-controlling interests to have a deficit balance. A list of controlled entities is contained in Note 20 Controlled Entities of the financial statements. ii. Transactions eliminated on consolidation All intra-group balances and transactions, and any unrealised income and expenses arising from intra-group transactions, are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements. d. Foreign currency transactions and balances i. Functional and presentation currency The functional currency of each of the Group's entities is measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which that entity operates. The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars which is the parent entity's functional and presentation currency. ii. Transactions and balances Foreign currency transactions are translated into functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction. Foreign currency monetary items are translated at the year-end exchange rate. Non-monetary items measured at historical cost continue to be carried at the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Non-monetary items measured at fair value are reported at the exchange rate at the date when fair values were determined. Exchange differences arising on the translation of monetary items are recognised in the profit or loss except where deferred in equity as a qualifying cash flow or net investment hedge. Exchange differences arising on the translation of non-monetary items are recognised directly in other comprehensive income to the extent that the gain or loss is directly recognised in other comprehensive income, otherwise the exchange difference is recognised in the profit or loss. iii. Group companies and foreign operations The financial results and position of foreign operations whose functional currency is different from the Group's presentation currency are translated as follows: P a g e | 23 ANNUAL REPORT 30 June 2019 Notes to the consolidated financial statements for the Year Ended 30 June 2019 Note 1 Statement of significant accounting policies ENSURANCE LIMITED AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES ABN 80 148 142 634 assets and liabilities are translated at year-end exchange rates prevailing at that reporting date; income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for the period; and retained earnings are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction. Exchange differences arising on translation of foreign operations are transferred directly to the Group's foreign currency translation reserve in the statement of financial position. These differences are recognised in the profit or loss in the period in which the operation is disposed. e. Taxation Income tax i. The income tax expense/(benefit) for the year comprises current income tax expense/(benefit) and deferred tax expense/(benefit). Gains and losses on discontinued operations are aggregated with the results of continuing operations for the purposes of income taxes up to the point where the operation no longer forms a legal part of the consolidated tax group. Current income tax expense charged to the profit or loss is the tax payable on taxable income calculated using applicable income tax rates enacted, or substantially enacted, as at reporting date. Current tax liabilities (assets) are therefore measured at the amounts expected to be paid to (recovered from) the relevant taxation authority. Deferred income tax expense reflects movements in deferred tax asset and deferred tax liability balances during the year as well as unused tax losses. Current and deferred income tax expense (benefit) is charged or credited outside profit or loss when the tax relates to items recognised outside profit or loss. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are ascertained based on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. Deferred tax assets also result where amounts have been fully expensed but future tax deductions are available. No deferred income tax will be recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or liability, excluding a business combination, where there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at reporting date. Their measurement also reflects the manner in which management expects to recover or settle the carrying amount of the related asset or liability. Deferred tax assets relating to temporary differences and unused tax losses are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the benefits of the deferred tax asset can be utilised. Where temporary differences exist in relation to investments in subsidiaries, branches, associates, and joint ventures, deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference can be controlled and it is not probable that the reversal will occur in the foreseeable future. Current tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists and it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists, the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities where it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur in future periods in which significant amounts of deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be recovered or settled. Where the Group receives the Australian Government's Research and Development Tax Incentive, the Group accounts for the refundable tax offset under AASB 112. Funds are received as a rebate through the parent company's income tax return and disclosed as such in Note 6 Income Tax. ii. Tax consolidation The Board of Ensurance Ltd has entered into the Tax Consolidation Regime from 1 July 2015. This will include the preparation and signing of a Tax Sharing and Funding Agreement. Ensurance Limited is the head entity in the newly formed tax consolidated group. As a consequence, the entities are taxed as a single entity and the deferred tax assets and liabilities of these entities are set off in the consolidated financial statements. P a g e | 24 ENSURANCE LIMITED AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES ABN 80 148 142 634 Notes to the consolidated financial statements for the Year Ended 30 June 2019 Note 1 Statement of significant accounting policies ANNUAL REPORT 30 June 2019 Under the tax funding agreement, the members of the Group are required to contribute to the head entity for their current tax liabilities. The assets and liabilities arising under the tax funding agreements are recognised as intercompany assets and liabilities at call. Members of the tax consolidated group via the tax sharing agreement may be called to provide for the income tax liabilities between the entities should the head entity default on its tax payment obligations. No amount has been recognised in respect of this component of the agreement as the outcome is considered remote. iii. Goods and Services Tax (GST) and Value Added Tax (VAT) Revenues, expenses, and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST/VAT, except where the amount of GST/VAT incurred is not recoverable from the taxation authority. In these circumstances the GST/VAT is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense. Receivables and payables in the statement of financial position are shown inclusive of GST/VAT. The net amount of GST/VAT recoverable from, or payable to, the Australian Taxation Office in Australia or HM Revenue & Customs in the UK is included as a current asset or liability in the balance sheet. Cash flows are presented in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis, except for the GST/VAT component of investing and financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows. f. Plant and equipment i. Recognition and measurement Items of plant and equipment are measured on the cost basis and carried at cost less accumulated depreciation (see below) and impairment losses (see Note 1i Impairment of non-financial assets). Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. The cost of self-constructed assets includes the cost of materials and direct labour, any other costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to a working condition for its intended use, and the costs of dismantling and removing the items and restoring the site on which they are located, and an appropriate proportion of production overheads. The carrying amount of plant and equipment is reviewed annually by Directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable amount from these assets. The recoverable amount is assessed on the basis of the expected net cash flows that will be received from the assets employment and subsequent disposal. The expected net cash flows have not been discounted to their present values in determining recoverable amounts. Where parts of an item of plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items of plant and equipment. ii. Depreciation Depreciation is charged to the income statement on a straight-line basis over the asset's useful life to the consolidated group commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of either the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful lives of the improvements. Depreciation rates and methods are reviewed annually for appropriateness. The depreciation rates used for the current and comparative period are: Fixtures, furniture, and equipment Plant and equipment 2019 % 2018 % 11.25 – 37.50 11.25 – 37.50 25.00 – 37.50 25.00 – 37.50 The assets' residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period. An asset's carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset's carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount. Gains and losses on disposal of an item of plant and equipment are determined by comparing the proceeds from disposal with the carrying amount of plant and equipment and are recognised net within “other income” in profit or loss.

Financial instruments ENSURANCE LIMITED AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES ABN 80 148 142 634 Initial recognition and measurement i. The Group has adopted AASB 9 Financial Instruments from 1 July 2018. AASB 9 replaces AASB 139 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement, bringing together all three aspects of the accounting for financial instruments: Classification and measurement, impairment and hedge accounting. The accounting for the Group’s financial assets, financial liabilities and hedge accounting remains largely the same as under AASB 139, with the main changes falling under the category of impairment. A financial instrument is recognised if the Group becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial assets are derecognised if the Group's contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial assets expire or if the Group transfers the financial asset to another party without retaining control or substantially all risks and rewards of the asset. Financial liabilities are derecognised if the Group's obligations specified on the contract expire or are discharged or cancelled. AASB 9 contains three principal classification categories: Measured at amortised cost, Fair Value through Other Comprehensive Income (FVOCI) and Fair Value through Profit or Loss (FVPL). This is based on the concept that financial assets should be classified and measured at fair value, with changes in fair value recognised in profit or loss as they arise (FVPL), unless restrictive criteria are met for classifying and measuring the asset at either amortised cost or FVOCI. Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are recognised immediately in profit or loss. The application of AASB 9 had no material impact on the Group’s financial assets in regards to their classification and measurement. ii. Non-derivative financial instruments Non-derivative financial instruments comprise investments in equity securities, trade and other receivables, cash and cash equivalents and trade and other payables. Non-derivative financial instruments are recognised initially at fair value plus, for instruments not at fair value through profit or loss, any directly attributable transactions costs. The Group has elected to account for listed shares using FVOCI. Subsequent to initial recognition non-derivative financial instruments are measured as described below. iii. Classification and Subsequent Measurement Cash and cash equivalents (1) Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of nine months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within short- borrowings in current liabilities on the Statement of financial position. Loans (2) Loans are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market and are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Loans are included in current assets, except for those which are not expected to mature within 12 months after the end of the reporting period. Trade and other receivables (3) Receivables are usually settled within 60 days. Receivables expected to be collected within 12 months of the end of the reporting period are classified as current assets. All other receivables are classified as non-current assets. Collectability of trade and other receivables are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Under AASB 9, doubtful debts are calculated based on an expected credit risk model. AASB 9 requires impairment allowances for all exposures from a time a loan is originated, based on the deterioration of credit risk since initial recognition. If credit risk does not significantly increase, allowances are based on 12 month expected losses. A cancellation provision is raised by looking at the previous 12 months’ cancellations and negative endorsements as a percentage of the overall premiums sold. (It is assumed this percentage will not materially change). This percentage is then applied to the trade receivable balance to create a cancellation provision. Trade and other payables (4) These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of the financial year which are unpaid and stated at their amortised cost. The amounts are unsecured and are generally settled on 30 day terms. P a g e | 26 ENSURANCE LIMITED AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES ABN 80 148 142 634 Notes to the consolidated financial statements for the Year Ended 30 June 2019 Note 1 Statement of significant accounting policies ANNUAL REPORT 30 June 2019 Share capital (5) Ordinary issued capital is recorded at the consideration received. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of ordinary shares and share options are recognised as a deduction from equity, net of any related income tax benefit. Ordinary issued capital bears no special terms or conditions affecting income or capital entitlements of the shareholders. iv. Amortised cost Amortised cost is calculated as the amount at which the financial asset or financial liability is measured at initial recognition less principal repayments and any reduction for impairment, and adjusted for any cumulative amortisation of the difference between that initial amount and the maturity amount calculated using the effective interest method. v. Fair value Fair value is determined based on current bid prices for all quoted investments. Valuation techniques are applied to determine the fair value for all unlisted securities, including recent arm's length transactions, reference to similar instruments and option pricing models. vi. Effective interest method The effective interest method is used to allocate interest income or interest expense over the relevant period and is equivalent to the rate that discounts estimated future cash payments or receipts (including fees, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) over the expected life (or when this cannot be reliably predicted, the contractual term) of the financial instrument to the net carrying amount of the financial asset or financial liability. Revisions to expected future net cash flows will necessitate an adjustment to the carrying amount with a consequential recognition of an income or expense item in profit or loss. vii. Impairment In relation to the impairment of financial assets, AASB 9 introduces a new forward-looking expected credit loss approach, replacing AASB 139’s incurred loss approach whereby the Group needs to record an allowance for expected credit loss upon initial recognition of the financial instrument. For Trade and other receivables, the Group has elected to measure the cancellation provision based on the expected value by looking at the previous year’s cancellations and negative endorsements as a percentage of the overall premiums sold. As such, the Group has assessed the historical credit loss experience and applied it to the current balance to establish the basis of the cancellation provision. Other financial assets are assessed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any objective evidence of impairment. A financial asset is considered to be impaired if objective evidence indicates that one or more events have had a negative effect on the estimated future cash flows of that asset. AASB 9 did not have a material impact on the Group’s financial statements. An impairment loss in respect of a financial asset measured at amortised cost is calculated as the difference between its carrying amount, and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the original effective interest rate. Financial assets are tested for impairment on an individual basis. All impairment losses are recognised in the income statement. An impairment loss is reversed if the reversal can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised. For financial assets measured at amortised cost the reversal is recognised in the income statement. viii. Derecognition Financial assets are derecognised where the contractual rights to cash flow expires or the asset is transferred to another party whereby the entity no longer has any significant continuing involvement in the risks and benefits associated with the asset. Financial liabilities are derecognised where the related obligations are either discharged, cancelled or expired. The difference between the carrying value of the financial liability extinguished or transferred to another party and the fair value of consideration paid, including the transfer of non-cash assets or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit or loss. ix. Finance income and expenses Finance income comprises interest income on funds invested (including available-for-sale financial assets), gains on the disposal of available-for-sale financial assets and changes in the fair value of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. Interest income is recognised as it accrues in profit or loss, using the effective interest method. Financial expenses comprise interest expense on borrowings calculated using the effective interest method, unwinding of discounts on provisions, changes in the fair value of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and impairment losses recognised on financial assets. All borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss using the effective interest method. P a g e | 27 ANNUAL REPORT 30 June 2019 Notes to the consolidated financial statements for the Year Ended 30 June 2019 Note 1 Statement of significant accounting policies ENSURANCE LIMITED AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES ABN 80 148 142 634 Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to prepare for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale. All other borrowing costs are recognised in income in the period in which they are incurred. Hedge accounting is not used and so the adoption of the hedge accounting requirements of AASB 9 had no impact on the Group’s financial statements. Foreign currency gains and losses are reported on a net basis. h. Employee benefits i. Short-term benefits Liabilities for employee benefits for wages, salaries and annual leave that are expected to be settled within 12 months of the reporting date represent present obligations resulting from employees' services provided to the reporting date and are calculated at undiscounted amounts based on remuneration wage and salary rates that the Group expects to pay at the reporting date including related on-costs, such as workers compensation insurance and payroll tax. Non-accumulating non-monetary benefits, such as medical care, housing, cars and free or subsidised goods and services, are expensed based on the net marginal cost to the Group as the benefits are taken by the employees. ii. Other long-term benefits The Group's obligation in respect of long-term employee benefits other than defined benefit plans is the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods plus related on-costs; that benefit is discounted to determine its present value, and the fair value of any related assets is deducted. iii. Retirement benefit obligations: Defined contribution superannuation funds A defined contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan under which an entity pays fixed contributions onto a separate entity and will have no legal or constructive obligation to pay further amounts. Obligations for contributions to defined contribution superannuation funds are recognised as an expense in the income statement as incurred. iv. Termination benefits When applicable, the Group recognises a liability and expense for termination benefits at the earlier of: (a) the date when the Group can no longer withdraw the offer for termination benefits; and (b) when the Group recognises costs for restructuring pursuant to AASB 137 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets and the costs include termination benefits. In either case, unless the number of employees affected is known, the obligation for termination benefits is measured on the basis of the number of employees expected to be affected. Termination benefits that are expected to be settled wholly before 12 months after the annual reporting period in which the benefits are recognised are measured at the (undiscounted) amounts expected to be paid. All other termination benefits are accounted for on the same basis as other long-term employee benefits. v. Equity-settled compensation The Group operates an employee share option plan. The fair value of options granted is recognised as an employee expense with a corresponding increase in equity. The fair value is measured at grant date and spread over the period during which the employees become unconditionally entitled to the options. The fair value of the options granted is measured using the Black-Scholes pricing model, taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the options were granted. The amount recognised is adjusted to reflect the actual number of share options that vest except where forfeiture is only due to market conditions not being met. i. Provisions Provisions are recognised when the Group has a legal or constructive obligation, as a result of past events, for which it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will results and that outflow can be reliably measured. Provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and, when appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. Leases j. Leases of fixed assets where substantially all the risks and benefits incidental to the ownership of the asset, but not the legal ownership, are transferred to entities in the Group are classified as finance leases. Leased assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives where it is likely that the Group will obtain ownership of the asset or over the term of the lease. P a g e | 28 ENSURANCE LIMITED AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES ABN 80 148 142 634 Notes to the consolidated financial statements for the Year Ended 30 June 2019 ANNUAL REPORT 30 June 2019 Statement of significant accounting policies Note 1 Lease payments for operating leases, where substantially all the risks and benefits remain with the lessor, are recognised in the income statement on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Lease incentives under operating leases are recognised as a liability and amortised on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease term. k. Revenue and other income Interest revenue is recognised in accordance with Note 1i.ix Finance income and expenses. For the year ended 30 June 2019, the Group adopted AASB 15: Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which replaced all revenue standards and interpretations. Revenue will be recognised when the Group has satisfied its performance obligations, which occurs when control of the goods or services are transferred to the customer. This is deemed to be the policy inception date. An invoice and policy documents are created at the date of inception, which specify each party’s rights and obligations, the price of the policy, the payment terms and the level of coverage. The insured party assumes full control at the date of inception and cover is enforceable as at that date, regardless of when payment is received. When the performance obligation has been satisfied, the Group will recognise as revenue the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the performance obligation, after excluding any estimates of variable consideration that are constrained in respect of settlement activities. See Note 3 for further information. The research and development (R&D) tax offset, also known as the R&D tax incentive provides for a 43.5% refundable tax offset on eligible R&D expenditure for entities incurring costs on eligible R&D activities and falling under an aggregated turnover threshold of $20m. For financial reporting purposes, this is treated as an income tax item and recognised when the work required to receive the grant has been completed. All revenue is stated net of the amount of GST/VAT (Note 1e.iii Goods and Services Tax (GST) and Value Added Tax (VAT)). l. Segment reporting An operating segment is a component of the Group that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, including revenues and expenses that relate to transactions with any of the Group's other components. All operating segments' results are regularly reviewed by the Group's Managing Director to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance, and for which discrete financial information is available. m. Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments Management discusses with the Board the development, selection and disclosure of the Group's critical accounting policies and estimates and the application of these policies and estimates. The estimates and judgements that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below. i. Key Estimate – Taxation Balances disclosed in the financial statements and the notes thereto, related to taxation, are based on the best estimates of directors. These estimates take into account both the financial performance and position of the company as they pertain to current income taxation legislation, and the directors understanding thereof. No adjustment has been made for pending or future taxation legislation. The current income tax position represents the directors' best estimate, pending an assessment by tax authorities in relevant jurisdictions. Refer Note 6 Income Tax. ii. Key Estimate —Impairment (1) Legal Parent Financial Assets related to Subsidiaries At the end of each financial year, an assessment is made on whether there are indicators that the Company’s investments in subsidiaries and loans to subsidiaries are impaired. Where necessary, the Company’s assessments are based on the estimation of the value-in-use of the assets defined in AASB 136 Impairment of Assets by forecasting the expected future cash flows for a period of up to 5 years, using a suitable discount rate in order to calculate the present value of those cash flows. The Company’s carrying amount of investments in subsidiaries as at 30 June 2019 was $669,754 (2018: $169,121), and loans $2,361 (2018: $nil) after an impairment loss of $231,465 was recognised in 2019 (2018: $6,993,937). The impairment losses have been included in the parent Company’s results for the year. Details of the impairment loss calculation are set out in Note 29. In determining whether an impairment exists, management assumes that a subsidiary will only be able to repay its loans to the extent it has positive net assets. It is also assumed that the Company’s legal subsidiaries have no realisable value as standalone entities and so the shares it owns in them must be fully impaired. It is assumed that loans with each subsidiary are interchangeable and so the extent of any impairment on loans is limited to the amount of the net deficiency of the sub-group. P a g e | 29 ANNUAL REPORT 30 June 2019 Notes to the consolidated financial statements for the Year Ended 30 June 2019 Note 1 Statement of significant accounting policies ENSURANCE LIMITED AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES ABN 80 148 142 634 (2) Intangible Assets The Company assesses impairment of intangible assets at each reporting date by evaluating conditions specific to the Company and to the particular asset that may lead to impairment. If an impairment trigger exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is determined. The Company used the income approach in determining the fair value which reflects the current market expectations about future amounts that will be generated by the intangible assets. This involves employing present value techniques that are dependent on the circumstances specific to the intangible asset and the availability of sufficient data. During the previous reporting period, the directors took a view to impair the full value of the software development costs until economic benefits flowing from this asset are material and can be determined with reasonable accuracy. The directors are still of the opinion that the additional economic benefits to be derived from this asset cannot be determined with reasonable accuracy. The decision to fully impair the carrying amount of the intangible asset resulted in a one-off impairment charge to the profit & loss account in the prior year in the sum of $2.01 million. iii. Key Estimate —Intangible assets and amortisation Intangible assets acquired as part of a business combination, other than goodwill, are initially measured at their fair value at the date of the acquisition. Intangible assets acquired separately are initially recognised at cost. Indefinite life intangible assets are not amortised and are subsequently measured at cost less any impairment. Finite life intangible assets are subsequently measured at cost less amortisation and any impairment. The gains or losses recognised in profit or loss arising from the derecognition of intangible assets are measured as the difference between net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the intangible asset. The method and useful lives of finite life intangible assets are reviewed annually. Changes in the expected pattern of consumption or useful life are accounted for prospectively by changing the amortisation method or period. Intangible Assets, arising from software development costs, are initially recognised as an asset when it is expected that material future economic benefits will be derived from such expenditure. The estimated future economic benefits are used to determine the recoverable amount of this asset, however, where the timing and value of these future economic benefits cannot be determined with reasonable accuracy, the carrying amount is written down to the recoverable amount through an impairment charge to the profit & loss account. iv. Key Estimate —Revenue Under AASB 9, the Group’s Trade and other receivables need to recognise an allowance for expected credit loss upon initial recognition of the financial instrument as a cancellation provision. The Group has elected to measure the cancellation provision based on the expected value by looking at the previous year’s cancellations and negative endorsements as a percentage of the overall premiums sold. As such, the Group has assessed the historical credit loss experience and applied it to the current balance to establish the basis of the cancellation provision. This makes the assumption that the rate of cancellation and negative endorsement will be materially the same as in the previous year and this is assessed annually. For the year ended 30 June 2019, a cancellation provision of 7.2% was applied to Australian receivables and 1.2% to UK receivables.

Management Judgement – Discontinued operations An operation is classified as discontinued when a decision is made by management to dispose of an operating segment of the business. The sale of Savill Hicks Corp Pty Ltd completed on 12 November 2018, it therefore met the criteria for classification as a discontinued operation in the financial year and the results of this entity are disclosed separately in this document from the continuing operations of the business. n. Amendments to AASBs and the new Interpretations that are mandatorily effective for the current period The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial years except the following which the Group adopted from 1 July 2018: AASB 9 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Financial Instruments and associated Amending Standards. AASB 15 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The adoption of AASB 9 did not have a material impact on the current period or any prior period and is not likely to materially affect future periods (refer to Note 1i). The adoption of AASB 15 had an impact on the current period (refer to Note 3) and was applied using the cumulative effect method. This resulted in a credit of $177,602 to retained earnings and $60,915 to reserves at 1 July 2018, being the cumulative effect on initial application of the standard. As permitted by the new accounting standard, the comparative results for the year ended 30 June 2018 are not restated. o. New Accounting Standards and Interpretations applicable from 1 July 2018 not yet mandatory or early adopted A number of new standards, amendments to standards and interpretations issued by the AASB which are not yet mandatorily applicable to the Group have not been applied in preparing these financial statements. Those which may be relevant to the Group are set out below. The Group does not plan to adopt these standards early. i. AASB 16: Leases (applicable to annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2019). AASB 16 removes the classification of leases as either operating leases or finance leases for the lessee effectively treating all leases as on the balance sheet. Short term leases (less than 12 months) and leases of a low value are exempt from the lease accounting requirements. Rent is no longer charged, instead depreciation and a finance charge, impacting EBITDA. Lessor accounting remains similar to current practice. The Directors anticipate that the adoption of AASB 16 will require representing the Group’s office rental leases in Sydney, Melbourne and London as finance leases, with applicable accounting treatment applied. An analysis of the Group’s current exposure to leases falling under AASB 16 has shown the following impact on the net profit and net assets of the Group at 30 June 2019: Non-current assets would increase by approximately $0.8m to recognise the right-of-use assets, less accumulated amortisation, with a corresponding increase in liabilities of $0.9m to recognise the lease liability. The reclassification of operating lease payments as depreciation and finance costs would have seen EBITDA increase by $0.3m, but net loss would increase by $0.1m. Overall cashflows are unaffected, however all cash payments made for leases would be reclassified from operating cashflows to financing cashflows. ii. AASB 2017-4: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments (applicable to annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2019). AASB 2017-4 amends AASB 1 to clarify that a first-time adopter whose date of transition to Australian Accounting Standards is before 1 July 2017 may elect not to reflect the application of AASB Interpretation 23, as identified in AASB 1048 Interpretation of Standards, in comparative information in its first financial statements prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards. The Directors anticipate that the adoption of AASB 2017-4 will not have a material impact on the Group’s presentation of its financial statements. iii. Other standards not yet applicable There are no other standards that are not yet effective and that would be expected to have a material impact on the entity in the current or future reporting periods and on foreseeable future transactions P a g e | 31 ANNUAL REPORT 30 June 2019 Note 2 Registered Office and Principal Place of Business ENSURANCE LIMITED AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES ABN 80 148 142 634 The registered office and principal place of business of the Company is: Address: Street: Level 5/68 Alfred St Milsons Point NSW 2061 PO Box 483 Milsons Point NSW 1565 +61 (0)2 8070 1800 Postal: Telephone: Other business locations Melbourne: Telephone: London: Telephone: 4/400 Canterbury Road Surrey Hills VIC 3127 +61 1300 794 079 Level 2, 10 Philpot Lane London, EC3M 8AA, United Kingdom +44 (0)20 3941 7710 P a g e | 32 ENSURANCE LIMITED AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES ABN 80 148 142 634 Notes to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2019 Note 3 Revenue and other income a.

As permitted by AASB 15, the Group adopted the standard on a cumulative effect basis, so that prior year comparative results have not been restated. Commission, brokerage and fees will be recognised when the Group has satisfied its performance obligations, which occurs when control of the goods or services are transferred to the customer. This is deemed to be the policy inception date. An invoice and policy documents are created at the date of inception, which specify each party’s rights and obligations, the price of the policy, the payment terms and the level of coverage. The insured party assumes full control at the date of inception and cover is enforceable as at that date, regardless of when payment is received. When the performance obligation has been satisfied, the Group will recognise as revenue the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the performance obligation, after excluding any estimates of variable consideration that are constrained in respect of settlement activities. To the extent a policy is negatively endorsed or cancelled, the Company still retains the right to collect the premium pro-rata to the point of endorsement or cancellation. The Company estimates variable consideration based on the expected value by looking at the previous year’s cancellations and negative endorsements as a percentage of the overall premiums sold. (It is assumed this percentage will not materially change). This percentage is then applied to the trade receivable balance to create a refund liability. The refund liability is considered an acceptable way to account for variable consideration in the standard. The adoption of AASB 15 is a reflection of a shift in timing of revenue recognised with no change in the quantum of revenue recognised. This change arises from the bringing forward of revenue recognition from the point settlement is received to the policy inception date, subject to variable consideration, which is constrained to reflect potential cancellations. Refer to the Consolidated Statement of Changes In Equity, which shows the quantitative impact of AASB 15. Set out below are the amounts by each line item in the Consolidated Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income and the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position affected by the adoption of AASB 15.

These benefits will only be obtained if: i. the Group derives future assessable income of a nature and of an amount sufficient to enable the benefit from the deductions for the loss to be realised; ii. the company continues to comply with conditions for deductibility imposed by law; and iii. no changes in tax legislation adversely affect the Group in realising the benefit from the deductions for the loss. h. Tax consolidation The Board of Ensurance Ltd has entered into the Tax Consolidation Regime from 1 July 2015. This includes the preparation and signing of a Tax Sharing and Funding Agreement. Ensurance Limited is the head entity in the newly formed tax consolidated group. As a consequence, the entities are taxed as a single entity and the deferred tax assets and liabilities of these entities are set off in the consolidated financial statements. Under the tax funding agreement, the members of the Group are required to contribute to the head entity for their current tax liabilities. The assets and liabilities arising under the tax funding agreements are recognised as intercompany assets and liabilities at call. Members of the tax consolidated group via the tax sharing agreement may be called to provide for the income tax liabilities between the entities should the head entity default on its tax payment obligations. No amount has been recognised in respect of this component of the agreement as the outcome is considered remote.

Each note entitles the holder to convert to one ordinary share. Conversion may occur at any time for a period of three years from the subscription date. If the notes have not been converted, they will be redeemed at this point. Interest of 8% will be paid quarterly up until that settlement date. On 12 November 2018, $0.5m of the notes were cancelled, forming part of the consideration for the sale of Savill Hicks Corp Pty Ltd. The conversion price of the note reduces in line with the issue price of any capital raising conducted during the life of the note. As at the balance date, the conversion price was 4 cents and as such a further 62,500,000 shares stood to be issued. Prior to year-end, existing holders of the remaining $2.5m convertible notes were offered an extension of the notes to 30 June 2021 on the same terms. Holders that opted to extend the terms were granted one option to acquire fully paid ordinary shares in the Company for every four shares into which their convertible notes would convert. $2,221,488 of the notes were extended and $278,518 were declined and will be redeemed as per the original terms of the agreement. The net proceeds received from the issue of the convertible notes have been split between the financial liability element and an equity component, representing the residual attributable to the option to convert the financial liability into equity of the Company. The equity derivative has been credited to equity (option premium on convertible notes). The liability component is measured at amortised cost. The interest component is measured at amortised cost. The interest expense is calculated by applying an effective interest rate of 12.57% for the period since the loan notes were issued.

Description of provisions Provision for employee benefits represents amounts accrued for annual leave and long service leave. The current portion for this provision includes the total amount accrued for annual leave entitlements and the amounts accrued for long service leave entitlements that have vested due to employees having completed the required period of service. Based on past experience, the Group does not expect the full amount of annual leave or long service leave balances classified as current liabilities to be settled within the next 12 months. However, these amounts must be classified as current liabilities since the Group does not have an unconditional right to defer the settlement of these amounts in the event employees wish to use their leave entitlement. The non-current portion for this provision includes amounts accrued for long service leave entitlements that have not yet vested in relation to those employees who have not yet completed the required period of service.

Identification of reportable segments ENSURANCE LIMITED AND CONTROLLED ENTITIES ABN 80 148 142 634 2014 $ 2013 $ The Group operates predominantly in the insurance industry. This comprises sale of insurance products & underwriting, and development of industry information technology. Inter-segment transactions are priced at cost to the Group. The Group has identified its operating segments based on the internal reports that are provided to the Board of Directors (the Board) on a monthly basis and in determining the allocation of resources. Management has identified four reportable segments: insurance (both in Australia and the UK), information technology and corporate overheads. b. Basis of accounting for purposes of reporting by operating segments i. Accounting policies adopted Unless stated otherwise, all amounts reported to the Board, being the chief decision maker with respect to operating segments, are determined in accordance with accounting policies that are consistent to those adopted in the annual financial statements of the Group. ii. Inter-segment transactions An internally determined transfer price is set for all inter-segment sales. This price is based on what would be realised in the event the sale was made to an external party at arm's length. All such transactions are eliminated on consolidation of the Group's financial statements. Inter-segment loans payable and receivable are initially recognised at the consideration received/to be received net of transaction costs. If inter-segment loans receivable and payable are not on commercial terms, these are not adjusted to fair value based on market interest rates. This policy represents a departure from that applied to the statutory financial statements. iii. Segment assets Where an asset is used across multiple segments, the asset is allocated to that segment that receives majority economic value from that asset. In the majority of instances, segment assets are clearly identifiable on the basis of their nature and physical location. iv. Segment liabilities Liabilities are allocated to segments where there is a direct nexus between the incurrence of the liability and the operations of the segment. Borrowings and tax liabilities are generally considered to relate to the Group as a whole and are not allocated. Segment liabilities include trade and other payables and certain direct borrowings. v. Unallocated items The following items of revenue, expenses, assets and liabilities are not allocated to operating segments as they are not considered part of the core operations of any segment: Depreciation and amortisation Gains or losses on sales of financial and non-financial assets Investment income c. Basis of accounting for purposes of reporting by operating segments The Group operates in two geographical areas being Australia and the United Kingdom. Segment results are reported under the Australian regulatory body’s accounting standards.

On 30 November 2015, 6,500,000 Performance Rights Class A (Class A Rights) were granted to Directors of the Company. Upon the Company achieving the target share price of $0.80, based on a 30-day volume weighted average share price, within 5 years, the Class A Rights will vest, entitling the holder or his nominee to 1 fully paid ordinary share in the Company per vested Class A Right. The Class A Rights hold no voting or dividend rights and are not transferable. At balance date, no Class A Right has converted, 5,500,000 had been forfeited and 1,000,000 Class A Rights remain. ii. On 30 November 2015, 500,000 Performance Rights Class B (Class B Rights) were granted to Mr Adam Davey. Class B Rights will vest on the introduction to, and entry into an agreement with, a strategic partner to the Company which results directly or indirectly in a material increase in the Company's revenue or otherwise increases the value of the Company, at the discretion of the Board of the Company. The Class B Rights hold no voting or dividend rights and are not transferable. At balance date, no Class B Right has converted or been forfeited and 500,000 Class B Rights remain. b.

The fair value of the performance rights granted to Directors is deemed to represent the value of the Directors' services received over the vesting period. These values were calculated using the Monte-Carlo option pricing model, applying the following inputs to performance rights issued: Grant date: Grant date share price: Deemed strike price Number of performance rights issued: Remaining life of the performance rights (years): Expected share price volatility: Risk-free interest rate: Class A Rights Class B Rights 30 November 2015 30 November 2015 $0.19 $0.80 6,500,000 3.423 31.06% 2.00% $0.19 $0.25 500,000 3.423 31.06% 2.00% Volatility has been determined based on the historical share price for the period between 5 May 2015 and 19 October 2015.

Specific Financial Risk Exposures and Management The main risks the Group is exposed to through its financial instruments are credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk consisting of interest rate, foreign currency risk and equity price risk. The Board of directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the risk management framework. The Board adopts practices designed to identify significant areas of business risk and to effectively manage those risks in accordance with the Group's risk profile. This includes assessing, monitoring and managing risks for the Group and setting appropriate risk limits and controls. i. Credit risk Exposure to credit risk relating to financial assets arises from the potential non-performance by counterparties of contract obligations that could lead to a financial loss to the Group. The Group does not have any material credit risk exposure to any single receivable or group of receivables under financial instruments entered into by the Group.

ANNUAL REPORT 30 June 2019 The objective of the Group is to minimise the risk of loss from credit risk. Although revenue from operations is minimal, the Group trades only with creditworthy third parties. In addition, receivable balances are monitored on an ongoing basis with the result that the Group's exposure to bad debts is insignificant. The Group's maximum credit risk exposure is limited to the carrying value of its financial assets as indicated on the statement of financial position. The Group establishes that no allowance for impairment is necessary in respect of trade and other receivables. Credit risk exposures The maximum exposure to credit risk is that to its alliance partners and that is limited to the carrying amount, net of any provisions for impairment of those assets, as disclosed in the statement of financial position and notes to the financial statements. Credit risk related to balances with banks and other financial institutions is managed by the Group in accordance with approved Board policy. Such policy requires that surplus funds are only invested with financial institutions residing in Australia, wherever possible. Impairment losses The ageing of the Group's trade and other receivables at reporting date was as follows (standard terms of trade are 90 days in the UK and 30 days in Australia): Gross 2019 $ Impaired 2019 $ Past due but not impaired 2019 $ Net 2019 $ 4,057,895 1,247,303 5,305,198 - - - 4,057,895 1,247,303 5,305,198 - 1,247,303 1,247,303 634,667 (10,500) 624,167 - 5,939,865 (10,500) 5,929,365 1,247,303 Insurance receivables (premiums) Current Past due Trade receivables (commissions) Current Total ii. Liquidity risk Liquidity risk arises from the possibility that the Group might encounter difficulty in settling its debts or otherwise meeting its obligations related to financial liabilities. The Group manages liquidity risk by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows and ensuring sufficient cash and marketable securities are available to meet the current and future commitments of the Group. Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Group's approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Group's reputation. Typically the Group ensures that it has sufficient cash to meet expected operational expenses for a period of 60 days, including the servicing of financial obligations; this excludes the potential impact of extreme circumstances that cannot reasonably be predicted, such as natural disasters. In addition, the Group's AFS Licensees are subject to the conditions of their AFS License. Accordingly, in meeting the cash needs requirement, the Group prepares cash flow projections to demonstrate the Licensees will have sufficient cash under the terms of their license.

Market risk 2,100,757 1,508,098 (4,565,546) (2,583,632) (2,464,789) (1,075,534) Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices will affect the Group's income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimising the return. The Board meets on a regular basis and considers the Group's interest rate risk. (1) Interest rate risk Exposure to interest rate risk arises on financial assets and financial liabilities recognised at the end of the reporting period whereby a future change in interest rates will affect future cash flows or the fair value of fixed rate financial instruments. The Group is also exposed to earnings volatility on floating rate instruments. Due to the low amount of debt exposed to floating interest rates, interest rate risk is not considered a high risk to the Group. Movement in interest rates on the Group's financial liabilities and assets is not material. (2) Foreign exchange risk Exposure to foreign exchange risk may result in the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument fluctuating due to movement in foreign exchange rates of currencies in which the Group holds financial instruments which are other than the AUD functional currency of the Group. The Group has no material exposure to foreign exchange risk on its financial instruments.

(3) Price risk ANNUAL REPORT 30 June 2019 Price risk relates to the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. The Group does not presently hold material amounts subject to price risk. As such the Board considers price risk as a low risk to the Group. ii. Sensitivity Analyses (1) Foreign exchange Notwithstanding the Group’s subsidiary in the UK, namely Ensurance UK Limited, the Group did not carry significant financial assets or liabilities in foreign currencies in the 2019 financial year (2018: nil), and therefore was not subject to material foreign exchange risk, and according not subject to material sensitivities. iii. Net Fair Values (1) Fair value estimation The fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities are presented in the table in note 26a and can be compared to their carrying values as presented in the statement of financial position. Fair values are those amounts at which an asset could be exchanged, or a liability settled, between knowledgeable, willing parties in an arm's length transaction. Financial instruments whose carrying value is equivalent to fair value due to their nature include: Cash and cash equivalents; Trade and other receivables; Trust account insurance assets and liabilities; and Trade and other payables. The methods and assumptions used in determining the fair values of financial instruments are disclosed in the accounting policy notes specific to the asset or liability.

(d) the Directors have been given the declarations required by s.295A of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth); 2. in the directors' opinion there are reasonable grounds to believe that the Company will be able to pay its debts as and when they become due and payable. This declaration is made in accordance with a resolution of the Board of Directors and is signed for and on behalf of the directors by: TONY LEIBOWITZ Chairman Dated this Tuesday, 24 September 2019 P a g e | 61 INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF ENSURANCE LIMITED AND ITS CONTROLLED ENTITIES Report on the Financial Report Opinion We have audited the accompanying financial report of Ensurance Ltd and its controlled entities (the “Group”), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2019 and consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated statement of cash flows for the year ended on that date, other selected explanatory notes and the directors’ declaration as set out on pages 18 to 61. In our opinion, the accompanying financial report of the Group is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, including: (i) (ii) giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 30 June 2019 and of its performance for the year ended on that date; and complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001. Basis of Opinion We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (the Code) that are relevant to our audit of the financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code. We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001, which has been given to the directors of the Group, would be in the same terms if given to the directors as at the time of this auditor’s report. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern We draw attention to Note 1.a.ii in the financial report, which indicates that the Group incurred a net loss of $1,401,735 during the year ended 30 June 2019 (2018: $8,707,405 loss) and as of that date, the Group’s statement of financial position reflected positive working capital of $2,102,369 (2018: $1,401,835), net liability of $2,293,658 (2018: $778) and accumulated losses of $20,077,097 (2018: $19,074,092).

Should the ongoing financial support cease, then a material uncertainty exists which may cast significant doubt as to the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern and therefore, the Group may be unable to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business and at the amounts stated in the financial report. Key Audit Matters The key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the financial report of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. Key audit matter How the matter was addressed in the audit Compliance with Australian Financial Services Licence Note 11 Our audit procedures focussed upon the group’s compliance with the financial and operational requirements of the Australian Financial Services License held by the Group throughout the financial year. The group holds an Australian financial services license for - Ensurance Underwriting Pty Ltd: 429874 which enables them to trade as an insurance broker. Conditions attached to the license include the need for positive net assets, sufficiency of cash flows and documentation of operational matters. Given the emphasis of matter relating to going concern noted in Note 1.a.ii to the financial report, our review of the cash flow requirements and associated projections is a key area of the audit, particularly given the significant judgements and estimates required in their compilation. comparing cash flow forecasts from Our procedures included but were not limited to:  prior periods to actual balances.  ensuring there are no calculation errors within the projections and other financial calculations used. performing sensitivity analysis over key  assumptions and their impact on AFSL ratio requirements.  assessing management’s assumptions and judgements made in the preparation of cash flow projections and performance of associated sensitivities. reviewing of documentation of all  ensuring operational compliance with the licensing requirements.  the appropriateness of disclosures made in the financial report relating to the financial services licenses held and compliance with their conditions. requirements assessing LEVEL 12, 90 ARTHUR STREET, NORTH SYDNEY NSW 2060 – PO BOX 1994, NORTH SYDNEY NSW 2059 TEL: +61 2 9922 1166 - FAX: +61 2 9922 2044 – www.mazars.com.au EMAIL: audit@mazars.com.au MAZARS RISK & ASSURANCE PTY LIMITED – ABN: 39 151 805 275 Liability limited by a scheme approved under Professional Standards Legislation  Sale of SHC Entities Note 30 The group disposed of 100% of the share capital of Savill Hicks Corp Pty Ltd, effective on 31st October 2018. In exchange for this, Ensurance received multiple components of consideration including cash, settlement of convertible notes and receipt of shares. The calculation of gain on settlement is a complex accounting transaction to ensure all aspects are appropriately recorded, presented and disclosed. Adoption of AASB 15 Note 3 the new standard AASB 15 replaces AASB 1023 as the applicable revenue standard and changes revenue recognition to a 5 step model, using the transfer of control as the point at which revenue is recognised.

The other information comprises the information included in the annual report for the year ended 30 June 2019, but does not include the financial report and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and we will not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information identified above when it becomes available and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial report or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of the other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. Responsibilities of Directors for the Financial Report The directors of the Group are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with the Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001. The directors’ responsibility also includes such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of a financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the ability of the Group to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of the financial report.

We also:  Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error, designs and performs audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtains audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for the auditor’s opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.  Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group’s internal control.  Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the directors.  Conclude on the appropriateness of the director’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If the auditor concludes that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in the auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial report or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of the auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.  Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial report, including the disclosures, and whether the financial report represents the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.  Obtain sufficient and appropriate evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the financial report. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the Group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion. We communicate with the directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that the auditor identifies during the audit. We also provide the directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable related safeguards.
